The project is grateful to Mrs.
Eiženija Reitmane, the holder of the copyright of Latviešu tautas dziesmas, for permission to create this
electronic edition.

The University of Virginia also gratefully acknowledges permission from
Dr. Imants Freibergs to utilize his keyboarded text version of Latviešu tautas dziesmas in ASCII format, known
as the Boston-Montreal Dainas Data Base, in creating this searchable XML
edition.

This project was made possible by the many contributors to the Milda
Zīlava Memorial Fund, established at the University of Virginia Library
by Professors Maruta and Benjamin Ray. The memorial gifts of the friends
and admirers of Milda Zīlava (1908-2003), actress of the Latvian
National Theater and Latvian films, and the gifts of the deans and staff
of the Office of the Dean, College of Arts and Sciences, have provided
the funding for this project. The University thanks each
contributor.
